Adam B

Mine too, I've a lot of time for Batley and if we can't do it, I'd be delighted to see them get there instead. Edit - I expect nothing but a tight/nervy game on Sunday, as they are well capable of turning us over, particularly if they play with the same intensity/low error rate they had when they beat us in June.

Just imagine how long the pole was when he was playing in Toronto

You're quite right, I'd completely forgotten about our fixed term contract Jack B. Whether that says more about his impact this season, or the sieve that is my mind these days, is of course for my neurosurgeon to decide.

I popped into the club shop yesterday to renew my membership for next year, so I reluctantly take full credit for both these re-signings. Be gutted if Jack B is moving on - say it ain't so.

Joey could play Oddjob. Closing credits - 'Jamil Bond will return in..... The Cheque Is Not Enough'.

In an ideal world, yes.

In view of the way Moors has carried the pack forward at times this year, you'd have to think he's got at least another year in him. Would love to see him bossing it in a Fev shirt again next year. Tempt Eseh with a 3 year deal, and find a few more big young forwards in the same vein, and we'd be shaping up nicely.

This has to be a wind up. Can just see it - Feisal Nahaboo is Jamil Bond, in 'Pay Another Day'.

Moors Koppy Briscoe

Fantastic news re Koppy (in particular), and totally unexpected given McD's doom-laden assessment when he first picked up the injury.

Nor mine Robin, and not the point I was making. POR makes an interesting point though, and it's a shame if that was a factor affecting his game. My point was that he never seemed to play to or take advantage of his size, and he's far from alone in that regard (I'm looking at you Ryan Verlinden, amongst many many others). I don't think he was tripe though, and judging by his visible enthusiasm and constant geeing up/encouragement of the other players he must have been a great lad to have in the team/dressing room.

Keegan Hirst begs to differ POR.

I was going to post something very similar, bizarrely including that sense he'd been with us for more than just the one season. What an absolutely superb player he was. A Rolls Royce. The fact he's only ever spoken with obvious affection for us ever since just further cements his Fev legend status. Indeed I still vividly remember his interview after that heart-breaking home defeat to Hull in early '95 where he was talking about how clubs like Fev never seem to get the rub of the green etc. But then, what would he know......... Agreed young Freddy Banqueting-Hall was pretty good too. Didn't he have a couple of mysteriously disallowed tries in the above-mentioned fix game?

The big question now is what constitutes the greatest miracle - what Ford witnessed in that delivery room last weekend, or ever seeing him in a Fev shirt again?
